Article Abstract
We report our institution's experience of detecting a staff member who was infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 while he was asymptomatic, as part of a rostered routine testing program, and how the institution was able to undertake measures to curb the spread, hence reducing the impact on the daily operations of our institution.

Investigating Factors Influencing Fatigue and Medical Imaging Technologist Performance on Night Shift: An Initiative to Improve Healthcare Delivery.
J Med Radiat Sci
July 2025
RECOVER Injury Research Centre, The University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia.
Introduction: It is widely recognised that night shifts can cause fatigue, negatively impact cognitive performance and increase the risk of accidents. This quality improvement project aimed to better understand factors impacting on fatigue levels of medical imaging technologists who perform night shifts at metropolitan hospitals in Australia.
Methods: All medical imaging technologists (i.

Background: The National Health Service faces significant challenges in recruiting and retaining registered nurses. Recruiting unregistered staff is often adopted as a solution to the registered nurse shortage, but recent research found lower registered nurse staffing levels increase hospital mortality with no evidence that higher levels of assistant staff reduced risk.
Objectives: To estimate the consequences, costs and cost-effectiveness of variation in the size and composition of the staff on acute hospital wards in England.
Biomathematical models of fatigue (BMMFs) are commonly used to predict cognitive alertness in commercial aviation. Accounting for workload in association with routine job tasks may help BMMFs to more accurately predict fatigue in real world operations. This study compared the accuracy of BMMF workload predictions (SF Workload) against pilot self-report of workload during normal flight operations.

JAMA Netw Open
May 2025
Research and Innovation Institute, Women's College Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Importance: Recommendations by family physicians are associated with uptake of vaccines, but many family physicians had limited capacity to identify patients in their practice who might benefit from personalized vaccination counselling. Practice facilitation is an evidence-based method of supporting changes in primary care, but its role in supporting COVID-19 vaccination rates is unknown.
Objective: To determine whether a multicomponent practice facilitation intervention would increase COVID-19 vaccine rates in the practices of family physicians with the largest number of unvaccinated patients.
